No argument from me on any of this. I don’t think it’s about the money.

Next time I am in Vallarta (MX) I will take you a photo of an actual - still trading - C&A store. Tickled me pink to find one there.

I'm in the UK for family reasons, having spent 20 years in mostly hot climates including 11 in Sydney. I'd happily swap with you, though I did enjoy my apple crumble and custard at the Christmas Market yesterday. Hope you get to do it one day. (Proper snow though, not just annoying British slush.)

Just got a new battery in my 12 mini. The guy said they do a lot, people are reluctant to give them up.

When we first moved over from Sg we rented a little cottage in McMahons Point and the first time I woke up to that noise I thought we had a roof full of chimpanzees escaped from a zoo. Needless to say I now adore them.

The joys of living in 5 countries. I still have to remember not everyone understands my Singlish.

True - I didn't realise it was typically Australian until I used it back in the UK.

Very similar to one of mine when I'm home alone. Others being ready-poached salmon or a cooked chicken breast chopped into microwaved veg, livened up with a few dry spices or kecap manis, etc.

I've been comparing UK-AU stories for future plans. Here in the UK I was referred, as a result of abs scans, for "urgent surgery". At 31 weeks I was called to discuss the need to speak to a consultant. (Very grateful that my husband's insurance meant I was several months post-surgery by then.)

In a previous life I got to do a lot of long haul travel in BC. I would always much prefer to sit near a well-travelled expat child than some prat on expenses for the first time, determined to drink the plane dry. (Especially the one that got on, took off his shoes and socks, and picked his feet.)

My cleaner in Singapore had a drop of this every day. It explained a lot. (She also tried to convince me some dark tarry substance would help me have babies despite a total hysterectomy ten years earlier. it came from a place of love 😀)
